Gift bags

December 17th, 2008 at 05:09 pm

Three years ago, I ordered an assortment of gift bags and tissue paper from QVC for about $25. It was some of the smartest money I have ever spent. There is just my husband and I and we reuse those gift bags every year. It sure does save a lot of time. I use to hate wrapping presents. Now, we just open the gift bag!!
They had pies on sale yesterday, so I bought one for christmas dinner and saved $2.

    My family reuses gift bags as well. Much better for the environment and our wallets! We needed a few new ones this year, so I went to the Dollar store where I usually get kine, and they had NONE! I think other people are starting to catch onto our frugal ways! Smile

    We get lunches delivered to us at work. One day in August the guy that picks up the meals was about to throw out six or seven bags. They are shaped just like a gift bag. They are from the local burrito store. They were clean and had a cool design. I snatched those suckers up and I'm going to use them for gift bags!

    I'm a gift bag user too! So easy and really can't go wrong with them. Smile
